Chinese
knotting is decorative in nature even
when making useful objects like buttons or curtain tie back. Tracing
the
evolution of this art form is difficult because little, if any, written
reports
exist on this subject. Figures of knotting objects appear in painting
and
sculpture that date back to ancient times. Remnants of these objects
are hard
to find since, the cords, made of fibers, disintegrate with age. In this
class you will learn some basic, as well as intermediate
Chinese Knotting.
